4 cm long; locally known as ‘Bamboo de China’ or ‘Cauayan China’ 
indicating a probably introduced species.” I do not feel very certain of

sionsflora von Java.”

A specimen of a bamboo without flowers, but with leaves and the culm- 
sheaths, agrees very nearly with Teinostachyum Dullooa Gamble in Ann.

found from the Sikkim Himalaya through Assam and Burma. Flowers 
should be carefully watched for.
